With the previous version I was having firewall issues with video chat. I think this update has solved it. Tried vChat with my friend out east and it worked fine. Even behind a Juniper SSG5 firewall without making any exceptions.

Yes those have been resolved

"Video Chat Connectivity -- Adds support for the TURN (Traversal Using Relay NAT) protocol, which enhances Video Chat connections between users on home, public and enterprise Wi-Fi networks."

Cool thing is that my boss used to employ the guy who came up with that update.
